对今日诗句的想法
然而约伯从来不知他为什么会遭受他所遭受的,知道他在来到全能的上帝面前才知道自己在这个宇宙中的地位(约伯记38-41)。当我们年轻的时候,时间过得非常缓慢-尤其是在我们等待一些特别的东西的时候。但随着我们年纪大了,岁月就会流逝得越来越快。然而,无论是我们的学习,还是我们所有的经验,都会让我们发出两个大觉悟:我们的知识与等待我们去认知的相比如此的少,我们在时间道路上的路程也是如此短暂。这两个觉悟让我们准备将生活和未来转向渴望我们靠近的上帝。
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
While Job never discovered why he suffered, he did learn his place in the universe before the Almighty God (Job chapters 38-41). Each of us needs this mature perspective! When we are young, time seems to pass very slowly — especially if we are excitedly waiting for something special! But as we grow older, the years seem to fly by quickly. Regardless of our learning and experiences, humility about our place in the passage of time should lead us to two great awakenings:
- Our personal knowledge is very small compared to all there is to know.
- Our place in the passage of time is so short compared to the passage of time since creation.
These awakenings should prepare us to turn our lives and futures over to God, who longs to bring us to himself and share the greatest part of eternity with us. We may be a shadow, but God also claims us as his children!
我的祷告
神圣和全能的上帝,我的阿爸,感谢你用你无比的耐心用你的爱和人们甚至像我这样有有限能力理解你的辉煌和荣耀的人交流,请你在这周给我智慧,让那些需要我决定需要我选择的事情都按照你的而不是我的方式进行,以主耶稣基督的名义,我祈祷。阿门。
My Prayer...
Holy and Almighty God, my Abba Father, thank you for your overwhelming patience as you try to communicate your love to people like me with my limited abilities to comprehend your magnificence and glory. Please give me the wisdom to make the decisions I must make and help me choose your way, not my own. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, I pray. Amen.
